@shanibeer and @muscara: too late 🤣 I went into the fabric shop (for the sewing course) and the first fabric I saw I bought. Its a lovely dark burgundy velvet. A kind of quilted fabric and it was not expensive... I could not resist. Now I hope it will not be too hard to sew 🙏

Velvet... Isn't that the stuff that always drifts in one direction?
Don't you dare to destroy my illusions 🤣 (I once used Pannesamt and it was hell... but the sewing teacher promised this fabric is different... I pray)
Velvet is okay, I had some velvet trousers once, just make sure the nap is all facing the same way ... unless you want it upside down as a design feature 😁. Enjoy your sewing class!
My last velvet (pannesamt... no idea how its named in English, a very thin and slippery velvet) was a desaster, I made every mistake possible, beginning with the nap in different directions, than my sewing machine blocked and I had to hand baste everything and at last I forgot a needle in the hem and could not get it out 😂😱😂
Sounds like the perfect training 😁 😘
